These Mini Baked Chicken Tacos are everything you want in an appetizer—crunchy, cheesy, and packed with flavor. They’re easy to make, endlessly customizable, and perfect for feeding a crowd. Whether you’re serving them for a party, game night, or just a fun twist on taco night, they’re guaranteed to be a hit.
What makes these Mini Baked Chicken Tacos so irresistible is their perfect combination of crispy shells, melty cheese, and flavorful shredded chicken—all in a bite-sized, handheld form. Unlike traditional tacos, these don’t fall apart as easily, making them ideal for mingling at gatherings. Plus, baking them instead of frying keeps things simple, with less mess and more crunch.
Helpful Tips
- Don’t overfill – It can be really tempting to overfill these tortillas. It doesn’t take a lot of filling, so be mindful not to overdo it. Remember, these are appetizers.
- Oil helps crisp the tortilla – You don’t have to spray or brush the tortillas with oil before cooking, but it really helps to crisp them. If you want crisp tacos, don’t skip the oil.
- Spice Them Up – For more flavor, mix in a spoonful of adobo sauce from chipotle peppers with the chicken, or drizzle the baked tacos with your favorite hot sauce after baking.
